u are coming to you tonight from new york city. we begin with some breaking news in one of the most consequential media trials in decades. the $1.6 billion defamation case against fox news. late this afternoon, the judge announcing a settlement was reached between dominion voting systems and the cable media giant. the ceo of the voting machine company says fox has admitted to telling lies about the dominion company and has agreed to pay nearly $800 million to settle the case. fox said in a statement, "we acknowledge the court's rulings, finding certain claims about dominion to be false." that is not a direct admission of guilt, but fox is seeking to avoid the embarrassment and the media circus of having its top stars and executives appear on the witness stand. cbs's scott macfarlane starts us off tonight from outside the courthouse. what a day, what a twist. good evening, scott. >> reporter: norah, this was a true last-minute settlement.

just after opening statements were set to begin, judge eric davis announced to the court, the parties have resolved their case. a blockbuster settlement averting a potentially landmark trial. >> the truth matters. >> reporter: lawyers for dominion voting systems celebrated their settlement with fox news this afternoon, announcing they would pay dominion more than $787 million. >> today's settlement of $787,500,000 represents vindication and accountability. lies have consequences. the truth does not know red or blue. >> reporter: dominion had been seeking $1.6 billion in damages from fox for defamation, arguing the company knew the claims of election fraud aired by their guests and some of their hosts were false, and aired them anyway. >> an update on dominion. >> reporter: damaging dominion's reputation and

business in the process. dominion ceo john poulos. >> fox has admitted to telling lies about dominion that caused enormous damage to my company, our employees, and theustoe. for that truthful reporting in the media is essential to our democracy. >> reporter: attorneys for fox left the courthouse without comment. in a statement, the company did not apologize, though they acknowledged the court found some of fox's claims about dominion to be false. with the settlement, fox news now avoids a six-week trial. >> fox settled pretty clearly to avoid the public humiliation of having to send all of their top talent, as well as their top executives, into the courtroom. i think they saw the strength of dominion's case. >> reporter: dominion's attorneys wouldn't say whether there was anything else in the settlement besides money.

>> money is accountability. and we got that today from fox. >> reporter: the trouble is not over for fox. another voting system company, smartmatic, who fox news hosts allege was part of a root effort to rig the 2020 election for joe biden, has also sued for defamation and sking illion. experts say that c in a settlement and potentially a larger sum. norah? >> norah: scott macfarlane, thank you very much. and there is more breaking news from right here in new york city. at least one person has died and several others were injured after a parking garage partially collapsed in lower manhattan late this afternoon. emergency crews arrived on the scene within minutes, a frantic search for victims. cbs's lilia luciano is there. >> 57 ann street between nassau street and william street. an explosion, a parking garage collapsed. >> reporter: late today, dozens of new york city firefighters rushed to lower manhattan after a four-story parking garage collapsed, sending cars crashing down to the basement. >> sounded like a bomb going

off, like a little explosion that happened because the whole ceiling, from what i have been told, completely fell down. >> reporter: authorities say six workers were inside the building. four were taken to the hospital. >> this was an extremity dangerous operation for our firefighters. we had firefighters inside the building conducting searches. the building was continuing to collapse. >> reporter: firefighters used a drone and robotic dogs to search for survivors, over concerns the rest of the building could fall. >> this building is completely unstable, and the chief, we do not want to send in someone until we can make sure the building is shored up. >> reporter: nearby pace university was also evacuated and classes were canceled. crews and investigators will continue working through the night to find answers, but authorities say they believe everybody is outside of the building. norah? >> norah: lilia luciano, thank you very much.

the 84-year-old kansas city man accused of shooting a black teenager after he accidentally went to the wrong home to pick up his younger brothers has surrendered to police. andrew lester faces two felony car charges for using his .32 revolver to shoot the rs s's adana diaz is issoi, with te latest onl'ry >> we love you, ralph! >> reporter: today, ralph yarl's classmates marched in solidarity and support. ralph's mother, cleo nagbe, says her son is recovering from being shot in the head and arm. >> mostly, he just sits there and stares, and the buckets of tears just rolls down his eyes. you can see that he is just replaying the situation over and over again. >> reporter: andrew lester faces two felony counts, armed criminal action and first-degree assault. according to the criminal complaint, the 84-year-old told police he had just laid down in bed when he heard the doorbell.

he picked up his gun and said he saw a black male approximately 6 feet tall at the door, telling detectives he was "scared to death" due to the male's size and lester's old age. the complaint says lester repeatedly expressed concern for the victim. ralph went to an address on this road. this is northeast 115th street, when in fact his little brothers were just a block down. you see that green street sign there? that is northeast 115th terrace, just about 100 yards away. ralph's family says as he was trying to get help, someone yelled at him to get on his knees and raise his hands. >> and all we hear is a bunch of banging at our door. >> reporter: in his first television interview, zac dovel, who lives across the street from us as he and his mother went to help. >> there was blood from where he was at, all the way up all over the door. >> reporter: dovel says he is still replaying that night in his head.

>> you hear about these things on the news over time, and then, when it really happens to you, it's a life changer. >> reporter: when you have images of ralph, what do you see? >> i see fear. >> reporter: you saw fear in his eyes? >> i saw fear in his eyes. >> reporter: the demonstrations continue this evening, and today, five days after the shooting, andrew lester surrendered before bonding out. norah, this afternoon, ralph's family told us they want equal justice, the same treatment any victim deserves, no matter their race. >> norah: yes, and it comes as ralph yarl's family says that the gofundme for medical expenses has now surpassed $3 million. adriana diaz, thank you so much. in another disturbing case, a homeowner in upstate new york has been charged with second-degree murder after he allegedly opened fire on a car that pulled into the wrong driveway on saturday night. police say 65-year-old kevin monahan shot and killed 20-year-old kaylin gillis after she and her friends got lost while looking for another friend's house.

monahan faces up to life in prison if convicted. now to some fuel frustrations in florida. while the sunshine state is still drying out from last week's historic rainfall, it is the gas pumps that are really dry. cbs's manuel bojorquez tells us what is behind the shortage and how long it will last. >> reporter: tonight, some fort lauderdale drvers are still fighting either long lines or empty pumps. you are in line, and you are hoping they still have gas by the time you get there? >> hoping they have it or hoping i don't have to push in the last like, 10-20 feet. >> reporter: for some, the frustration has boiled over. >> it's just kind of violent, like, you hear. so, hopefully we can get in and get out with no problem. >> reporter: it's a distribution problem, a ripple effect from last week's historic flooding. flooding. high water and pump problems slowed the deliver slowed the delivery of fuel from port everglades, which services 12 florida counties. at one point today, more than half of miami and fort lauderdale gas stations

were without fuel, according to gas buddy. but with more deliveries resuming, the worst may be over. >> it turned into a panic buying spree, which overwhelmed the system, even a normally functioning system probably would not have been able to keep up. but i wouldn't say it is a shortage simply because there are millions of gallons of gasoline still waiting to be delivered at port everglades. >> reporter: and tonight, pat de haan with gas buddy says it could be a week or so before things start to get back to normal. that is if people stop panic buying. tonight, we are learning the florida department of emergency management is sending 500,000 gallons of fuel here to the southeast part of the state to help. norah? >> norah: that is needed, manny bojorquez, thank you so much. turning overseas, "wall street journal" reporter evan gershkovich made his first public court appearance today in moscow. a russian judge rejected an appeal from the american

journalist to be freed from his pretrial detention on espionage charges. the state department says he is being wrongfully detained. cbs's nancy cordes reports his lawyers have vowed to keep fighting for his release. >> reporter: evan gershkovich stood in a metal and glass cage with his arms folded, ahead of what the white house dubbed a sham judicial proceeding. "he is in a combative mood," his russian lawyer said. "he is ready to defend himself." gershkovich was arrested and accused of espionage during a reporting trip in russia last month. >> president biden: totally illegal, what is happening. >> reporter: the 31-year-old "wall street journal" reporter was one of the few western journalists left in russia, after putin invaded ukraine last year and began cracking down on free speech in his own country. the last american russia accused of espionage, paul whelan, has been in prison for more than four years. have there been any substantive negotiations, or even conversations, about evan

between u.s. officials and russian officials yet? >> what i can say is that we are committed to getting evan home, and we are committed to getting paul whelan home. >> reporter: in a letter written in russian, evan reassured his parents that he is not losing hope. "i read, i exercise, and i am trying to write." his parents, who fled russia for the u.s. in the late '70s, told "the wall street journal" they are trying to be optimistic. >> that's where we stand right now. but i am not stupid. i understand what's involved. >> reporter: russian officials have said they might be willing to discuss a potential prisoner swap, but only after evan's trial is complete, and that trial is not scheduled to begin until late may at the earliest. so, he will remain in a former kgb prison, norah, at least until then. >> norah: all right, nancy cordes at the white house, thank you very much. there are growing concerns over the safety of americans inside

the war-torn african nation of sudan, after a u.s. diplomatic convoy came under attack on monday. secretary of state antony blinken said preliminary reports indicate the attackers were linked to a paramilitary group fighting against sudan's army for control of the country. cbs's debora patta reports from the region. >> reporter: a city of over 6 million people turned into this. [explosions] as hostilities between two rival sudanese generals exploded into all-out war. gunshots rang out in residential areas. fighter jets thundered across apartment blocks, and khartoum's airport was engulfed in flames. and, as usual, civilians were caught in the middle. >> we are fine. we are safe. the power has -- [explosion] -- been out.

that was something. you know, it's like, i don't even know what it is anymore. >> reporter: the u.s. has urged americans in khartoum to stay indoors. secretary of state antony blinken said yesterday a clearly-marked u.s. diplomatic convoy was fired on. nobody was harmed, but in calls with both generals, he said the action was reckless and irresponsible. >> i made very clear that any attacks, threats, dangers posed to our diplomats were totally unacceptable. >> reporter: a 24-hour humanitarian cease-fire was supposed to start earlier tonight, but it has had little effect, and heavy gunfire could still be heard in the capital long after it was supposed to begin. the state department says contingency planning for u.s. personnel in sudan is underway, but norah, the airport remains closed, and there are currently no plans to evacuate american civilians. >> norah: debora patta, thank you.

we want to turn now to the growing mental health crisis facing america's children. the most recent cdc data revealed a troubling trend, that three in five teen girls felt persistently sad or hopeless. to get some advice for parents, we sat down with a top psychologist and the author of the new book, "the emotional lives of teenagers." ishika vij was just 12 when her anxiety started. after feeling the pressures of her schoolwork, ishika developed an eating disorder. >> just being able to control how i look versus, i thought, you know, i wasn't like worth enough or smart enough so i was like, maybe i can be pretty enough, or i can, you know, like, follow these norms that like social media has set. >> this is a different generation. their ability to cope with things is very different. they are resilient, but i think they're just exposed to a lot more things much earlier than we ever would have thought.

>> norah: lisa damour is a clinical psychologist and mother of two. she says parents should delay and limit their children's access to social media. >> when girls are in distress, they tend to collapse in on themselves, whereas when boys are in distress, they tend t act out. >> norah: how do we help teens deal with those ups and downs? >> we approach it from the side of what we call emotion regulation. so, you can't get rid of distress, you can't keep it from arriving, but you can regulate it. getting feelings out, as teenagers say, is part of how they get relief. >> norah: ishika did not have that outlet with her parents. it was only when she had thoughts of suicide that they began to realize the severity. >> a lot of parents have the "not my kid" attitude. like, my kid, he is not like your kid, so where my kid is better. >> you don't see it, even though it is hiding in plain sight. when you look back at the symptoms, hey, these are all there, but while we are going through this, we just didn't realize it. >> norah: knowing the signs is the first step. experts say parents should keep an eye out for a sudden drop in grades, self-isolation, a short temper, and changes in eating or sleeping habits.

you say teens need two things for healthy development, what are they? >> well, what they need is the warmth and structure. it is harder sometimes with teenagers. i would say the number one rule for raising teenagers is don't take it personally. >> norah: after months of intensive therapy, ishika is in recovery, and now the family speaks openly about mental health. >> your job as an adult, as a parent, is to be there for them. and support them, and creating a positive support system, even if you don't completely understand, it just -- it means a lot and can make a really big impact on their lives. >> norah: listening is importat. all right, southwest airlines flights were grounded nationwids we will tell you why next. flighe today. we will tell you why next. and tonight, sparks are gonna fly. kyle? and while romeo over here is trying to look cool, things are about to heat up. uh-oh. darn it, kyle! and if you don't have the right home insurance coverage,
